Re-ordering items on left side not being saved

I recently (yesterday) upgraded to Windows 7 and Live Mail from Vista x64. I
have 4 email accounts that came over smoothly. My problem is I'd like to
re-order the items on the left (Quick Views, email#1, email#2, Outbox,
Storage Folders, etc.).

I "Move Up" and "Move Down" items as appropriate, but when I close & reopen
Live Mail, everything's right back to the ORIGINAL order. Is there a "SAVE"
option I'm missing somewhere!?

No. The general order is fixed, and can't be changed:

Quick views
Accounts
Outbox
Storage folders

Within the "Accounts" section, you can order the accounts, and that order
will stick. Outside of the "Accounts" section, the order is fixed, and can't
be changed in any manner that will stick.

You can't change the order of Quick Views, Outbox, Storage, et al., however,
the actual email account folders are listed alphabetically. So, if you
precede them in the account setups with A-_, B-, C-, etc., you can at least
manipulate the order of those.
